In a way, I’m envious.

Been married twice also.

I think it’s easy to pile on the idea of marriage. It facilitated
the worst moments of my life. It also facilitated the greatest
moments of my life.

There were two wonderful women I got to spend time with. I
had two beautiful incredible children, and now a handsome
incredible grandson. I was also able to live with two good
extended families, the relatives of my wives. I also met some
very interesting people and did some very interesting things
through the wives and those people.

There are positive aspects to being with someone, and if both
can focus on them and forget about the perceived differences,
they “can’t live with”, things can always be beautiful.

At times we are not capable of living above the worse parts
of us. We get fixated on negativity, and we sell ourselves short.
In the process we sell our kids out too.

If it weren’t for my age, I might give it a go again.
